Ready to party All Night Long: Lionel Richie's girl Sofia turns heads in plunging gold gown at Met Gala (after getting new tattoo in make-up chair)
Sofia Richie has solidified her position as one of the most promising models in the fashion industry with her appearance at the Met Gala wearing TopShop.
She arrived alongside fellow catwalkers Candice Swanepoel, Presley Gerber, Gabriel Kane, Jordan Kale Barrett, Joan Smalls and Behati Prinsloo at the event, but was sure to stand out in a metallic gown that showed plenty of her generous cleavage.
The 18-year-old daughter of Lionel Richie paired the silver and gold gown with a leather jacket that she wore off of her shoulders.

Her newly-bleached hair was slicked back, putting all of the attention on her genetically-blessed face and mis-matched diamond earrings.
She was dripping in even more diamonds around her neck, which dipped down into her chest.
Prior to the event, Sofia shared on Snapchat that she took a SoulCycle class as a pre-Met workout.

Just before she left for the Met Gala, she shared a video while getting a cross tattooed on her right middle finger.
This was not Sofia's first time attending the invite-only fashion bash.
In 2015, Sofia was the guest of designer Stella McCartney for the gala's China: Through The Looking Glass theme.

The Met Gala is the highlight of the fashion calendar.
And with ground-breaking Comme des Garçons designer Rei Kawakuboas named as this year's theme, the famed fund-raiser is sure to provide plenty of spectacle.
The Tokyo-based designer has been deemed worthy of the solo focus of this year's gala - which inaugurates the museum's eagerly-awaited accompanying exhibit of her label.

It is the first time the gala and exhibit has focused on one living designer since 1983, when it highlighted the work of Yves Saint Laurent.
Vogue editor Anna Wintour co-chairs the gala, joined by Katy Perry, Tom Brady, Gisele Bundchen and Pharrell Williams.
Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton, told AP that Kawakubo is considered the world's 'most important and influential designer' of the moment and 'has consistently defined and re-defined the aesthetics of our time.'

Known for bold, experimental clothing, Kawakubo's designs have an austere aesthetic and a cult following.
The 74-year-old officially founded her cerebral design house in 1973 to critical acclaim - and was dubbed 'anti-fashion' for challenging the notions of beauty with her innovative aesthetic.
Comme des Garcons has been showing collections in Paris each season since 1981.
The Metropolitan Museum in New York - where the annual gala is held - is displaying 120 Comme des Garçons womenswear designs by Kawakubo, spanning the past 35 years, since her first Paris show.
